Franklin said the "lowest blow" to education this session was the Senate not taking up, fully debating or passing Holden's national teacher certification plan. Chairman of the Senate education committee Sen. Roseann Bentley, R-Springfield, also agreed. She sponsored the bill in the Senate. This plan was a high priority on the governor's education agenda.
"There isn't any legislation coming before committee. I'm not opposed to drafting a law on this subject, but it would have to be written very carefully," said Sen. Roseann Bentley, R-Springfield, who chairs the Senate Education Committee and is a leading sponsor of child-related bills.
